Immunogen | Human thyroglobulin. |
Application Notes | The antibody binds specifically to thyroglobulin, a dimeric protein produced by the follicular cells of the thyroid gland. Thyroglobulin is the precursor of the thyroid hormone thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3). Levels of thyroglobulin in the blood can be used as markers for certain thyroid tumours, and these levels can sometimes be masked by the presence of thyroglobulin antibodies, which are found most commonly in patients with Hashimoto's thyroiditis and Grave's disease. The detection of anti-Tg antibodies can therefore be used to test for these diseases. |

Note on publication | Describes the potential of human monoclonal antibodies in developing new therapies, and the advantages of using phage antibody technology in comparison to the hybridoma technology. Also describes the production of several; scFVs using phage display libraries, against human TNF alpha, thyroglobulin, MUC1, Fog1 and CD4. |
